However, Kurata, whose 13-foot-tall Kuratas robot fires BBs at 6,000 rounds per minute from twin Gatling guns, has one condition: that the battle be melee combat. "If we're going to win this," he says, "I want to punch them to scrap, and knock them down to do it."

Kurata seems awfully confident his giant robot can best the MegaBot Mark II. MegaBots, the ball is in your court.
